Church just got closer to home. Found another lost post....

So how does Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Winterset Branch sound to you? To me it sounds pretty darn good. Now instead of driving 30 minutes to church I now will drive 5 minutes and that is if I hit all the red lights in town. There is only 4 traffic lights here in Winterset. When all this snow here melts (I think they say it might melt by July) I can even walk to church if I so desire. I kind of feel like I live back in Utah where there is a church building on almost every block.

We will meet in our new meeting place on Sunday February 14th. We will only meet for sacrament meeting because they don't have any of the church position filled except the Branch Presidency. Our Branch President is Aaron Price his counslers are Josh Chapman from DeSoto Iowa and Tom Turner from Winterset.The branch clerk is Brother Cottrell he isnt actually in branch boundaries and neither is Bro. Chapman but until the branch is bigger they will have visiting leadership. Someone from another area will be asked to help out. Here is a picture of the new Presidency

It is the back part of a building that has a appliance store in the front half. It is small but it will work until we get a few more members. At this point I think they said we will have about 40 members. Since August I have been trying to become active at church again. It hasnt been easy for me. At this point I havent had a calling for about 8 years (my choice) I wanted to go to church because I felt like going not because I had a calling. Now with this new Branch I am sure a calling will come. Am I ready for one. I am not sure but I will pray for the knowledge to know it is the right calling.
Now about this weather...............GO AWAY SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even a winter lover like me can only handle so much of it........ Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy since I already did and can go right outside my door and enjoy it if I so choose to.
